2025 Summer Transfer Thread. ๐
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We sold Wharton and Szmodics for nigh on ยฃ30m and didn't reinvest a penny into the squad. -

Dolan considering overseas options - does that mess up our expected tribunal fee? -

Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at Derby. -

I think that is why they were checking tickets for months - they were adamant that people were cheating the system. -

Ismael must love the ball coming back at us time after time. -

Makes their pitch invasion after a 2-2 draw with freefalling PNE even funnier. -

He must be a wreck, physically, because you know he'd be cheap to keep around. -
To be fair they broke Rooney and Owen at that age too.

He was a very good player in his time, but his legs have clearly gone. He'd be nice as a bench option, but you know they'd be signing him as a regular starter. -

No thanks. Give Toth the gloves or try to upgrade on him. -

If we were a properly run club Hedges, Forshaw, Weimann would all be thanked for their services and shown the door. All way past their best and weak squad players. As we're not they'll all be announced as major signings in the summer. -

Besides popping up with the odd goal he was a passenger when on the field. Simply couldn't keep up with play at times. -
I'd never heard of Montgomery until he ran out at RB for us. He wasn't highly touted at all. Markanday would be a waste of a wage - we should have sold him in January, he's not physical enough for this level. A bit like ACD; you can be as skilful as you want, but it's a boy playing against men athletically. It's painful viewing.

I think the bit at the end in bold is the problem when fantasy squad building. We need to generate millions of ยฃs a year in transfers just to stand still financially - they're going to sell some of our more established stars to do that, so the squad will be even weaker than we fear before we can even think about adding to a terrifyingly weak side.

Tracking our (outbound) loan players 24/25
Exiled_Rover replied to BRFC4EVA's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I watched a game or two of his when he was at Bristol Rovers - he was tidy on the ball and tenacious in the tackle, which is what he's always looked like when he's run out for us. From what I gather, the Bristol Rovers manager (I believe they were relegated and he was sacked) was instructed to play his own players over loanees - so regardless of how good or bad Garrett was, he wasn't going to get much game time. We should have asked that question before loaning him there. I can't comment on his Tranmere loan. -
Carter's injuries have come at the wrong time for him and the club. He was really pushing on for a PL bid - now we'll keep hold of him, I think he's missed his window.
-
That was Broughton's plan - and it makes sense on our budget, but yeah you can't have any passengers in that 18. Hedges, Forshaw, Buckley, JRC et al would have to go.
-
I'm not sure why everyone is obsessed with the CB being left footed. Can he pass the ball accurately 15-20 yards to a teammate? Great, I don't care what foot he does it with.

The catchment area is huge - we have fans from Cheshire and Cumbria. The problem is we no longer market to them - hell we no longer market to fans out of the Borough, even though that's where a good number come from. -
I'd shift him on if I thought the money would be reinvested into the squad. We know it won't be, so you're just serving to weaken the team.
-
Renew Hedges, but sell Gueye. I clearly don't watch the same games as other fans. You're not getting anything for Leonard btw - two long periods out with a back injury, nobody will touch him.
-
Eustace laid it out on the table for everyone to see. He's a snake though, apparently.

It's quite satisfying really as Nixon was really crowing about this coup on Twitter when he was in full Waggott brown-nosing mode. Dennis has been a disaster of a signing and I'm glad he'll never darken our door again
